Men are eager to make meritorious contributions and immediately become marquis, women are naturally very eager for their husbands to make meritorious contributions, and the official of the court to make her husband will also give his wife a decree, and the status of Mrs. Decree is quite high, nominally having the same status as her husband, and even having the qualification to enter the Hajj to see the queen, which is definitely not something that ordinary women can get.

"It's a pity that the adults and uncles are outside, but as long as one person is with Kaoru, it won't be so isolated, Kaoruro, if it's the uncles who come to help, then it would be fine."

Yang Caiyun's words reminded Xiao Ruxun that he was still a child of a family of Jiangmen, his grandfather Xiao Han was the deputy chief soldier of Liangzhou, and his father Xiao Wenkui was the deputy general of the Beijing camp, and he was the governor of the same country; The three brothers, Xiao Rulan, Xiao Ruhui, and Xiao Ruzhi, are all disciples of the generals, and they are very brave, although the four sons of one family are hereditary, but they are all not weak generals, which is still quite an excellent one in terms of the overall decline of the embarrassing Ming generals.

However, this is also related to the poor living environment of the border army generals, and the need to practice martial arts to prepare for war since childhood, after all, there is no year when the Ming Dynasty has not fought since the founding of the country, and compared with the Beijing camp that has long been corroded, the nine-sided border army has stronger combat effectiveness and organization, but the strongest combat effectiveness is mostly the private soldiers of the Jiangmen family, such as the famous Guanning Iron Cavalry, and the regular official army is relatively weak.

Yan'an Xiao has four sons, the name list is quite elegant, and even a little feminine, showing that the cultural literacy of the named father is not low, and the education of children is also very attentive, which is also consistent with the record of Xiao Ruxun in history, the history of Xiao Ruxun is in Jiangmen, but he can write poems, and his cultural literacy can be seen, and he is by no means an illiterate Qiu Ba, so many literati and ink writers like to associate with him regardless of whether they have the intention or not. This is the famous idiom allusion to the rush, unfortunately, in this allusion, Xiao Ruxun's image is not very positive.

Now a father and son are separated from the north and the south, the father is in the capital, the third brother Xiao Ruzhi is in Nanjing, only the eldest brother Xiao Rulan and the second brother Xiao Ruhui are in the three sides of Shaanxi, but they are also stationed separately, they are not seen all year round, and the father and son family can not be reunited, it is indeed a pity, if you can meet your relatives on the way to the march......

However, Xiao Ruxun is a little nervous now, for fear that she will not be able to meet her relatives after seeing them, revealing some flaws.

Yang Caiyun invited the doctor to diagnose Xiao Ruxun again, the doctor was amazed that Xiao Ruxun's physical fitness was excellent, the bleeding was fast, and the wound healing speed was also fast, according to this trend, you can resume normal action in ten days and half a month, but if you want to fight on the battlefield again, you need more than a month of recuperation.

After that, Yang Caiyun asked the maid to bring some porridge and side dishes, and served Xiao Ruxun to eat, Xiao Ruxun asked her why she didn't eat it, and she also teased Xiao Ruxun with beautiful food, which made Xiao Ruxun's face flush and feel quite faceless, and secretly said in her heart If she is not unwell, she must put this little girl in the form of eighteen to educate her to be a good person.

But, to relieve pressure on her husband, Yang Caiyun is so good-hearted!

In the afternoon, Xiao Ruxun asked Yang Caiyun to serve him in regular clothes, put on a net scarf, dressed properly, put on light leather armor, and with the support of his own soldiers, he reluctantly got on his horse and went to inspect the city.

It is said that the war ended yesterday morning, and when he came back, Xiao Ruxun bled a lot, his face was pale, although he was still conscious, but he had been seen by many people, Yang Caiyun was afraid that the people in the city were unstable, so it was suggested that Xiao Ruxun inspect the whole city and appease people's hearts, Xiao Ruxun himself also had some plans, to go to the city to inspect the situation of firearms, since it was necessary to prepare for the defense of the city, all kinds of materials were also indispensable, but before that, there was one more important task.

Xiao Ruxun asked Wang Er, the leader of the army, to take the roster of officers of the whole army.

The bottom army is okay, but if the officer can't name himself and doesn't know him, it's too wrong.

Xiao Ruxun's current official position is Ningxia General and Pingyu City Garrison, that is, one of the generals of Ningxia Town, and Pingyu City Garrison Officer, not only responsible for the defense of the road, but also responsible for the safety of Pingyu City, in essence, it is stationed in Pingyu City, and is also in charge of the safety of the road.

There are generally 3,000 soldiers under the generals, counting the auxiliary soldiers and some requisitioned people, if a general leads the army to go on the expedition, there must be four or five thousand soldiers, and in the system of 3,000 soldiers, there are three thousand generals, six generals, and thirty hundred generals, and then there are countless general banners and small flag officers, and in fact, what needs to be cared about is the three thousand and six generals, and if you take charge of these people, you can make the whole army firmly in your hands.

However, unlike other regions, the nine-sided towns of the Ming Dynasty were actually not counted in the political division, but were guarded by military towns, in fact, the vast interior was governed by civilian officials, and the nine-sided towns were guarded by the militaristic system, and almost all of the people in charge of civil affairs and military affairs were hereditary generals and a small number of promoted officers, only the financial power and personnel power were firmly grasped in the hands of the imperial court, and they were put to the locality, and the local general army and deputy general army staff and general garrison had their own powers.

It's like being in Pingyu City, getting the edict of appointment, and the imperial court allocating grain, grass, money and goods, it's fine, the rest of the things, the civil affairs, military and finance, are all Xiao Ruxun's own decision, and the life and death of tens of thousands of people in the city are only in Xiao Ruxun's thoughts; Even the chief soldier, the highest military attache who commands the army, is in the nine sides, and most of them are hereditary officers, and it is conceivable that a twenty or thirty-year-old general military officer is really nothing in the nine sides.

This also confirms from the side the reality of the Ming Dynasty's emphasis on literature and light on military force at the moment.

The imperial court no longer attaches importance to the personal ability of officers, and only hopes that they will manage their subordinates well, form combat effectiveness, and in the event of war, it is good to obey the orders of civilian officials to fight and charge, and there is no need to consider what strategic tactics or anything, these are all things for leading soldiers and civilian officials, but they are different from the Great Song Dynasty, don't underestimate the leading civil officials of the Ming Dynasty, if you want to become a leading civilian officer in the Ming Dynasty, it is really not easy, the Ming court in the later period is to treat the leading civil officials as orthodox officers to be trained, so how did so many Xiao generals be dominated by a literati? That's because this literati really has the ability.

A hereditary officer like Xiao Ruxun is just a soldier leader in the eyes of the imperial court, if he can't show his prestige and show his achievements to prove that he has the talent to lead the soldiers, he will be a soldier leader all his life, and he will not want to enter the sight of the supreme ruling group, and even if you are really a talented and capable super general, such as Qi Jiguang, in the eyes of the civil official, he is just a hunting dog with cracked teeth and a mouth that can bite people to death, and he is one of the bargaining chips in the political struggle of civil officials, and he still has to obey the words of the hunter.

It's hard to say, but that's the reality.

It should be explained that the generation is a little better than the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty really treats the generals as pigs and dogs, and the Ming Dynasty still regards some generals as adults, and the military salaries, equipment, food, etc. of the border army dare not be in short supply at will, otherwise people will really pick and choose!

Originally, Xiao Ruxun liked to write poems and make friends with literati, probably because he was suppressed too badly by civil officials, and wanted to break the situation in another place and get better treatment, but his skills were not enough, and he was broken into a sieve, and it ended miserably.

Now Xiao Ruxun won't do those brain-dead things, you know, the increase in the difficulty of the imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty directly made the eyes of the literati from the imperial examination grow to the sky, and the contempt and even contempt for the martial arts is almost innate, and it is almost impossible to get the recognition of the literati as a martial artist, unless he becomes a figure like Li Chengliang, the Li Chengliang family has guarded Liaodong for decades, and is almost about to become the second Mu family town in Liaodong.

The first thing Xiao Ruxun has to do now is to defend Pingyu City, try his best to make a name for himself in the Battle of Ningxia, and then find a way to join the Battle of Korea!

Xiao Ruxun knew very well that at the same time as the Battle of Ningxia was going on, in April of the twentieth year of Wanli, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Japanese Imperial Pavilion, sent 140,000 elite Japanese Warring States elites who had just ended the Warring States Period to conquer Korea, intending to conquer the Ming Dynasty after annexing Korea.

During this period, when the Ming Dynasty still maintained the status of the Celestial Empire, if the two disasters could be eliminated at the same time, Japan and the Jurchens must be able to fight for some bargaining chips for the future, and in order to achieve these two long-term goals, Xiao Ruxun regarded the ongoing Battle of Ningxia as an important opportunity.

War is not only a disaster, but also an opportunity for some people, which cannot be denied in any way.

Xiao Ruxun, who has been in a dominant position all year round, instantly entered his role.

Remembering the names of the three thousand generals and the six generals, Xiao Ruxun looked at the roster while setting off to inspect the whole city, and the horse team slowly moved around the small Pingyu City, and the people in the city and the army that maintained order saw General Xiao, who had just won a big battle but was rumored to be unknown in his life, rode on a horse to inspect the whole city, and his heart settled down.

In this era of relying on the prestige of the main general to command the army to stabilize the city, the safety of the main general is related to the victory of a battle, and the importance of the main general is naturally needless to say, the main general's good inspection of the whole city can play a role in stimulating morale and stabilizing people's hearts, and it is the best tranquilizer for the army and the city where the big war is imminent.

After inspecting the whole city, Xiao Ruxun rode his horse to the granary in the east of the city.
